fortunately from a Tigers fan POV Potter and Porter just signed new contracts this season.
As someone who likes watching Super rugby I really struggle to see how Nadolo will cope with the speed of the games.
Speaking as a Tigers fan who has seen every game Tigers have played with Nadolo the past 2 seasons.
He's like a Cargo ship unstoppable running at you but damn is he slow to turn in defence especially on the outside and this is at Premiership

Both Aus and the players knew the situation when the selections happened, Tigers spent the money on To'omua because aus selection policy meant that he should be with us all season, Aus...
